Testimonials
I’ve enjoyed coding club for the 8 years I did it, from Y3 to Y10. The online Python course has really helped as it meant I could continue throughout Covid, and managed to fit it around other commitments. It has helped me in my Computer Science GCSE as Gicela made sure to teach elements of python that are on the curriculum, which provided me with the knowledge to take it even further in lessons.
Gicela tailors a specific task for every person, that is at the level they need, and makes sure to help them whenever they need it.I had a great time over the years at coding, and I will miss the Monday Python sessions.

Gicela has run our after-school coding club at Mary Elton for 6 years. They have always proved popular with children in both KS1 and KS2. Her activities are engaging and age appropriate. Her coding activity programmes enable children to progress at their own pace and so children feel they are achieving. Gicela is supportive in her delivery and she chooses fun activities which moves children’s learning on. She has a broad subject knowledge and ensures children develop their skills and knowledge in a safe environment. Most important of all children enjoy her coding club activities
Mary Elton School Deputy Headteacher
CodingBug delivered an engaging series of digital courses and workshops in 5 North Somerset libraries. The sessions were creative, imaginative and presented in an easy to understand, informative manner. With encouragement and guidance, children were inspired to develop their coding skills. It was impressive seeing children design and develop their own website, apps and games. The feedback received was super, with comments ranging from ‘amazing’ to ‘I would 100% recommend it!’
